Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Google and SEOmoz both crawl the web differently and don't crawl everything.  And Google should be crawling a lot more then SEOmoz.  So with that said, you will see differences in their indexes. A few similar answered questions: http://www.seomoz.org/q/different-information-on-seomoz-and-gwt http://www.seomoz.org/q/open-site-explorer-vs-google-webmaster-tools

Hi David, Great question. I'm not sure if that's possible or not, I know there are a lot of options via Linkscape's API but you're talking about Crawl Reports and that's a separate issue entirely. I'd suggest asking the SEOMoz Staff about it... I'd love to know my self. To submit a ticket: https://seomoz.zendesk.com/home Contact SeoMoz Help: help@seomoz.org If it's not currently possible you might want to add it to the Request a Feature page. Thanks, Anthony

ok thanks for the clarification.

Hi Sean, Good point, and this is a common issue with link metrics. I believe the metrics used to calculate most Moz metrics were recently tweaked and the models used to calculate them all adjusted by the in house data scientist, Dr. Matt Peters. I can't tell you exactly how every link is valued, but I can say that over time, Moz has tried to model thier metirics (MozTrust, DomainAuthority, MozRank) in ways that reflect real-world link metrics. That said, in spite of the great progress, it remains a game of cat-and-mouse game with Google. We can guess how Google values certain links, but Moz metrics are far more likely to count links that Google is likely to disregard. In the end, as you have discovered, you often have to use your own eyes and judgement when evaluating links past the initial qualifying stage.

the wordpress just has a setting under general settings for www or non www.

Hey Thomas, Just sent you an email. I have worked with small travel providers in the past and would be interested in discussing your site further. You can find more info on my site at HoodWebManagement.com. Thanks, -Kane

Personally, I think your traffic expectations are a bit unrealistic. You're looking for a 800% increase in traffic in one years time. I'm not saying it's impossible, but as the other commenters noted you are better off trying to bring in more qualified traffic that converts. The companies that sell you on the 100k/month number are the same ones who will likely put you in danger of penalty.

Hey TJ, For your example there would be an easy solution: 301 redirect (it will take up a lot of time but, then you will be redirecting both users and search engines to one of the version) Canonical (it will not redirect the user, instead it will tell Search Engines that the page that they are looking for is the one specified in the canonical link) A more visual explanation of this issue can be found on a great post of Dr. Pete. Check it out: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/an-seos-guide-to-http-status-codes I hope that helped, Istvan

I landed at the same place: unable to record all the legacy links being directed through my redirects, while definitely benefiting from them.

Hi Alex - have you considered using a format such as this for your title tags - Word | Brand Name However to actually answer your question it is fine to use hyphens I have several well ranked pages that use a hyphen in the title tag and this has not caused me any issues - out ranking sites that don't use the hyphen format. The thing I would think about though is having your brand regularly coming before anything else in the title tag that's why I suggested the format above - just a suggestion. You can still rank well for branded keywords with your brand being second in the title tag order.

We are seeing some campaigns drop down to crawling just one page. Emailing help@seomoz.org and getting in touch with the help team is the best thing at this point. So sorry for the rude awakening on a Monday morning!

If it is automatically generated, then you should bring this up to your Dev team and have them investigate.  One of the biggest issues I see is auto generating sitemaps daily. Good Luck

Hey! You can set up a campaign under a domain like Example.com then you can also just track a subfolder on that specific domain in another campaign. Just select the "subfolder" option when you set up the campaign and you can track www.example.com/blog.

Hey there! All of our dates will remain on the Pacific Standard timezone. Sorry about that. We are looking to change this in the future, but have no ETA as of now.

I think the crawl tets tool might be able to help you, it outputs a csv with some of the info. http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test

Thanks... will do so

I have watched it, he is talking about spam tacktics, I dont see the tooll recomending any of these.

Hi Mcarle, I'm Rob - I built Linkstant. Linkstant monitors for clicks on a link to your site that it hasn't seen before. If you put the Linkstant code on a new site, or just on new pages, then you'll only know about new links. If you put the code on pages that have been around for a while and have a bunch of links already, then I'm afraid it will alert you when it discovers those old links for a while. You could consider turning off the email alerts for a time, while it discovers all those old links, or you might just chose to the put the code on new content. Hope this helps; let me know if you have any other questions! Rob

Beauty, thanks. Strange - the url that I entered directed to the correct location, but in the past day the www. has been removed and replaced with a *, hence the lack of pages crawled. Is that an update feature of SEOMoz? Is my best recourse to delete the campaign and start over?

Possibly. Another possibility is that it doesn't even matter - I recall you said that the URL's from OSE landed you on dead (presumably 404) pages. So if the duplicate content is not actually there in reality (ie, when you visit the page), it might just be an error or an artifact of OSE's crawl procedures meeting with some weird code in Miva. But yeah if you feel like hiring a "Miva pro" is what you need to do then that could be a good idea too - I'm really not in a position to say either way, with my lack of experience with the software and all. Best of luck anyway.
